SparrOws for Food.

Sparows are being properly ap-
preciated. Hundreds of them are
now caught by enterprising people
for sale TO certain restaurants where
reed birds are in demand A Ger
man woman on Third avenue has three
traps set every day, and she catches
probably seventy five n week They
are cooked and served to her board
ers the same as reed birds and are de
clared quite as great a delicacy- This
German woman bastes them, leaving
the little wooden skewer in the bird
when served. They are cooked with
bit of bacon. She tempts them
with oats, and after the catch they
are fed with boiled oat meal She
sprinkles ost meal in the back yard
also, and thereby fatteus the free
birds. The males can be told by cir
Gle o: white feathers at the neck
The females are as plain as Quaker
esses. So soon as II becomes gen
orally known that the sparrow Is q
table bird their number will rapidly
grow less People don't like to ex-
pertinent, but when it is discovered
that the sparrow has been declared
by those upon whom they have been
tried no boarding house meal will be
deemed in good form unless a dish
of fat sparrows adorns it. Sparrow
pie is a delicacy fit to set before q
king.-New York Tines.

The following is from the Middle
town Register : We have a good but
true story to tell at expense Of a
worthy and industrious farmer re-
siding considerably less than thou
sand miles from this place In some
way he lost the run of the days last
week. and on Sunday morning. sup
posing 1t to be Saturday, lie hitched
up his team and began hauling in his
wheat He tOiled hard all day long
at this work and did not find ont that
1t was the Sabbath day until late in
the evening. But for the fact that
he started one of his boys to town in
the evening for groceries, he might
not yet know the day of the week,
When the lad was passing a neigh
bOrs house toward town in his work
ing clothes he was halted and asked
where he was going. He replied 10
town for sugar and coffee. The
nelghbor then told the boy that If
was Sunday and that the stores were
all closed. The lad was incredulous
and said You cau't fool me" but
after awhile the earnestness of the
nelghbor impressed him with the
truth that 1t was Sunday and impart-
ed this information to his father, It
Is presumed that his father began to
investigate and found out that il re.
ally was Sunday, for it is said he is
very mnch mortified over it, and has
chlded some of his neighbors, who
observed him at work, for not TELLING
him of his Sabbath breaking. 0
